Why FAA Keep Stopping Spacex Starship Orbital Flight Test!

The F A A is in charge of regulating all aspects of aviation, from traditional passenger airlines to commercial space travel. Since space vehicles share the same airspace as airliners, the FAA is responsible for making sure everything is carried out safely and that the public are protected.

To put it into perspective, the FAA handles around 16 and a half million flights per year. In the space world, the number of launches expected to take place this year is around 50. But now that space tourism is becoming a real thing, this number will start to grow rapidly in the next few years. Not to mention SpaceX’s grand plan for suborbital passenger travel using their Starship rocket.

They want to operate offshore launch platforms all around the globe with thousands of passengers travelling each day. With the FAA’s current rules, this would be impossible. If you’re an American entity launching a rocket anywhere in the world, you need an FAA license. But getting a license isn’t a quick process. Once a company files an application, it can take the FAA up to 180 days to review it.

This process involves a huge amount of testing and verification before they can give the all clear. The assessment is broken down into 4 different regulatory parts, each with their own set of strict safety requirements. The rocket needs to have a flight termination system during each launch, which will purposefully blow up the rocket if it goes off course. In order to operate a spaceport, the FAA also needs to do intense environmental checks to make sure rocket launches won’t destroy or disrupt any nearby wildlife.
